Tessa whose curiosity got the better of her leaned closer to Anthony’s face, regardless of her better judgment because she wanted to confirm if what she saw was real.“Open your eyes Silver, I want to check something,” she said.“What do you mean my eyes are glowing? Is that what you want to confirm?” Anthony asked as he slowly opened his eyes to look at her.Once she saw what she was looking for, Tessa grimaced and was speechless for some seconds.“Tell me, are they glowing or not?” He asked her.Tessa smacked her tongue confusedly then said “Umm, they are not. I guess I was wrong, maybe?”The room was dark so if they were glowing it would be obvious but there was nothing.It left Tessa even more confused because she had no idea what was going on or why she would imagine Anthony’s eyes glowing. It made no sense.“The intensity of the lights from the bulbs before they exploded must have temporarily damaged your pupils. Why didn’t you close your eyes when it was happening?” Anthony ask
Parked along the road of Vintgate District, just in front of the restaurant and bar Anthony took Tessa’s siblings to which was also Vinny’s favorite place to hang out with his gang, was a taxi.The taxi driver was on a call and from the face he was making, he wasn’t in a good mood.“How many times am I going to tell you that I’m still looking for money for the bill? Stop hassling me!” The taxi driver yelled into the phone.[“Oh really? Then why can’t I hear the sound of the road if you’re working that hard?!”] the person on the other side yelled back.“What do you mean the sound of the road?!” [“The sound of the road, stupid! The sound of other cars driving by. You’re not driving are you?!”]“Of course, I’m not driving! How would I be answering your call if I was driving? You just want to yell at me and take out your frustrations don’t you cause this isn’t a reason to be angry!”[“Oh really? That’s why I divorced you in the first place. Our daughter is in the hospital and instead of
The taxi driver drove Anthony to the alley of a deserted street where he parked, turned off the engine, and faced Anthony at the back."We're here son in law. Before I forget, in case you want to try something stupid and call someone for help, you should already know by now that I'm not going to let that happen" The driver said then reached for Anthony's pockets.He dabbed all of Anthony's pants pockets until he felt Anthony's phone and grinned wickedly."Let's just get rid of this before it causes problems," the driver said then pulled out the phone."Don't touch that—" Anthony said tiredly as he grabbed the driver's wrist and was struggling with him. Unfortunately, his strength right now isn't what it used to be."Gimme that!" The driver said furiously then forced his hand from Anthony's grip.The driver assessed the phone and what condition it was in and then he said "Nice looking phone. No use destroying it when I can sell it for some cash"The driver stuffed the phone into his po
The wind blew through the alley and every hair on Anthony's body stood. He had a chilling sensation all over his body as he felt the breeze run through every single strand of hair on the exposed parts of his body.It was a very strange sensation he was feeling. His entire skin felt sensitive to any stimuli."What was that—" Anthony asked himself then looked down at his hands and paused then said, "What is this?"His eyes widened in shock at what he was seeing.He swayed his hands around while flailing his fingers and he could see the air around his hands being moved by the motions he was making."What am I seeing? Why am I— What is this? This looks… bizarre" Anthony mumbled in disbelief.Just then, he heard one of the guy's teeth clanking rapidly which pulled his attention toward him.This particular guy was the closest to any of the cars and when Anthony looked at him, he could see the heat radiating from the engine in a reddish color.Anthony stopped looking at any of the guys and f
"Hey Vinny, what's this rumor I'm hearing that has to do with The Overseer? What do you think it could be all about?" One of Vinny's gang members asked as they were walking and smoking on the road."What makes you think I would have any ideas? Knowing anything the Overseer does is way above my pay grade" Vinny answered.The gang member who asked the question smacked his tongue in disappointment and then mumbled "You don't ever know anything important that's going on in the Mob. So much for a leader"All the other members of the gang gasped as they hurriedly looked at this member."What?" The members asked before looking at an angry Vinny and realizing he had said what he just did out and Vinny had heard him being disrespectful."Oh shit!" The member covered his mouth and Vinny started walking up to him "Vinny, you know I didn't mean what I just said right? It was a slip of the tongue—""No, repeat what you just said to my face. Don't be a wuss about it and say it with your chest" Vinn
Pulling Frank through the broken car window delivered many cuts on his body, especially his face and arms. Anthony also sustained a few cuts too but at the moment he couldn't feel any pain.Once he threw him, Frank didn't just hit the ground but he bounced and rolled a couple of times before skidding and stopping after hitting the pile of unconscious bodies which were his friends.Anthony raised his hands to his face and looked at them with amazement."It wasn't my intention to throw him that hard but look how far he went. This strength reminds me of Satyre's but not completely. With this power I could maybe surpass her" he said then grinned as he was filled up with adrenaline.Only a couple of hours ago and he was depressed about not having enough strength to protect those he cared about which was mainly Annabelle and now he has this much power coursing through his veins.The only question is, where did it come from, and why he of all people? Anthony was too enthralled in what was go
Fortunately, it was a white almost silver-furred street cat that had been sleeping at the time but his fight had woken it up.Anthony watched the cat jump off the edge of the dumpster to the ground and then strolled towards him until it got there and rubbed its body against his leg.The cat circled his leg a few times before it looked up at him and purled.Anthony looked down at the cat and its blue eyes which reflected the sun, matching how his looked right now and it put a smile on his face."Looks like I woke you, sorry" Anthony apologized to the cat then went on one knee to pet its whiskers.The cat, although being a street cat, accepted Anthony and while he was still petting it, the cat looked in Frank's direction then it hissed with all of its hair standing up.The cat took Anthony's attention to Frank who was trying to get up and escape faster than crawling was allowing him."I almost forgot about you," he said then frowned.Anthony snapped his finger at the cat which got it to
“Wait, you can’t be serious!” Frank said in a panic as he tucked his knees and held them.“You have one minute to decide or else I’ll decide for you,” Anthony said then walked away.In Frank’s head, Anthony could have just done what he wanted to do to him right there and then but he felt Anthony was messing with him.It was like he wanted him to be in misery and suffer for a whole minute before he comes back because to Frank that minute would seem like an eternity.The fear of the pain of two shattered knees, the uncertainty if Anthony is going to keep his word to help his daughter or not, the worry if his legs are ever going to be the same way after Anthony is done with him, all these things went through Frank's mind.During the last ten seconds, Anthony came back from checking all the other things he could see with his glowing eyes. He found out that not only sound and temperature but he could also see most forms of energy.He could see the electricity flowing through the cables abo
